The packeges from Europe to America (any country) are sent as Priority/express/airmail etc., which means they go by air - they load them on the plane, and the very same day it flies across the ocean.
However, If the packege is non-priority/non-express etc., it is loaded into a container, which will NOT be loaded on the ship before it is full - and that usually takes up to a Month for more popular destinations (from Poland it's Canada, USA, Brasil),and up to over 2 months to "less popular" destinations. Then it has to go all the way on the ship and around a week in the country of destination.
IF the packege is small, the price difference between air and sea is small, but the larger the packege, the higher the costs. That's why larger packeges are usually sent by sea.
